PRIM_TYPE

Description

Constant: integer PRIM_TYPE = 9;

The integer constant PRIM_TYPE has the value 9

Gets or sets the type of the prim and associated type parameters.

llSetPrimitiveParams

[ PRIM_TYPE, integer flag ] + flag_parameters

• integer

flag

–

PRIM_TYPE_* flag

Used with llSetPrimitiveParams & llSetLinkPrimitiveParams.

The values needed for flag_parameters is dependent on flag, please refer to the individual PRIM_TYPE_* articles for additional information.

Caveats

• PRIM_TYPE can only be used with LINK_SET if the object contains 10 or fewer prims. It can only be used with LINK_ALL_OTHERS or LINK_ALL_CHILDREN if the object contains 11 or fewer prims. If there are more prims, the operation will fail and an error will be shouted to DEBUG_CHANNEL. Work around this by looping through the prims with llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast.
• While it is possible to use PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT to animate an object, it is not recommended. For details see: Why UUID Flipping is Bad

llGetPrimitiveParams

llGetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_TYPE ]);

Returns the list [ integer flag ] + flag_parameters

• integer

flag

–

PRIM_TYPE_* flag

The values that follow after flag, the flag_parameters, are dependent on the value of flag, please refer to the individual PRIM_TYPE_* articles for further information.
